Summary: Teaching a bird to talk is done through repetition, whether from the owner's voice or the voice on a recorded tape. Teach birds one simple word or phrase at a time with tips from a pet store employee in this free video on training birds.
"Hi, this is Jennica from Pet Planet in Riverton, Utah. We're going to be talking about how to teach your bird to talk. There are some few ways that you can teach your bird to talk. You can actually get a tape that just repeats words and it actually will just start repeating and they'll learn. You can also just talk to your bird occasionally and say the same words over and over again and it will actually help them remember and learn how to say the words. When you're teaching a bird to say a word you want to keep it short and simple, they learn faster that way and it also helps them remember a lot easier. When you're teaching a bird to talk, you also want to stick with one word for a while until they start to get it down. You want to start off with something easy like, hello, goodbye, how are you. If you have any further questions, you can contact us at petplanetriverton@gmail.com."
